Worst air pollution Tunkhannock, today and tomorrow

On 30 August 2026, overall air quality in Tunkhannock is very poor. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 83.9/100. Pollution peaks around 1:00 AM (NO2: 83.9/100).

On 31 August 2026, air quality conditions in Tunkhannock will be better than today, with AQI forecast at moderate at 43.5/100. Pollution peaks around 12:00 AM (NO2: 43.5/100).

Air quality in Tunkhannock shifts across the year. Typically, once summer ozone season ends, winter typically offers the cleanest air, while the hottest, most humid summer weeks bring the year's highest ozone readings. Suburban and rural areas generally see less of the persistent traffic-driven pollution that affects the urban core.

It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.

Airmine’s forecast uses CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) as its background atmospheric model. While CAMS includes wildfire emissions, these are derived from satellite observations and are not available in real time. During rapidly evolving wildfire events, there may therefore be a delay before increased emissions are incorporated into the model. As a result, the forecast may temporarily underestimate PM₂.₅ and other pollutants associated with wildfire smoke.

During rapidly evolving wildfire events, CAMS may lag by approximately 1–2 days before increased wildfire emissions are fully represented, which can lead to temporary underestimation of PM₂.₅ concentrations in Airmine’s forecast.
